[INVX] Trailing Stop

Description:
The Adjustable Trailing Stop Indicator is a practical tool designed to enhance your trading strategy by allowing for automatic modifications of stop-loss orders according to your specified parameters. This indicator provides a dynamic alternative to the traditional static stop-loss orders, assisting in managing your potential profits and curbing possible losses.

Features and Functionality:
The Trailing Stop Indicator provides three main inputs for customization:
  • "Trailing Stop Start Date": This input enables you to set the start date for the trailing stop. From this date forward, the indicator begins tracking price changes and adjusts the stop-loss order in response.
  • "Trigger Delta (%)": This represents the percentage for the trailing stop. It denotes the set percentage at which the stop order adjusts.
  • "Order": This input determines whether the trailing stop applies to a Buy or Sell order. Depending on the selection, the indicator adjusts the stop price as the price escalates (for Sell order) or declines (for Buy order).

How Does the Trailing Stop Indicator Work?
The Trailing Stop Indicator functions by dynamically adjusting the stop price in line with market fluctuations. If the market price rises (for Sell order), the stop price automatically ascends, securing potential profits. In a declining market (for Buy order), the stop price descends according to the market.

This indicator eliminates the need for constant manual adjustments, reducing the impact of emotional trading and helping traders maintain their risk management strategy. By using this tool, traders can implement a more disciplined and systematic approach to trading.
